SitePoint Book Sale to Aid Bushfire Appeal
If you’re a web designer or developer, you may be interested to know that our friends over at SitePoint in Australia are holding a special three-day sale on e-books to raise money for the Australian Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal 2009. You can pick up any five SitePoint PDF e-books for the price of one: $29.95. All of the proceeds from the sale, which ends Friday, will go directly to the Appeal to help individuals and communities affected by the recent wildfires in Australia.

This sort of self promotional crap surrounding disaster sickens me. If you want to help make an ANONYMOUS donation, don’t use other peoples suffering to serve your own ends. There’s no reason they couldn’t do the math and give the money themselves.
F*@king sitepoint are a bunch of wankers whose books aren’t worth it anyway.
I’m not going to comment on the above message, but I just thought I’d provide a quick update on the initiative. So far we’ve raised over USD $125K/ AUD $195K with plenty of time left to grab a bargain. For everyone that already has – from the bottom of my heart – thank you.
